'Will'- A Review by Younas Rehman Younas

Presenting review of the poem, 'Will'
( The Poetry Forum ).

A Review by Sir Younas Rehman Younas-

Though a short poem , it has an ocean of wisdom enshrined in it.

We all are endowed with will and willpower . yet it remains , it may remain subject to fluctuations.  The worst downside of the same is when we feel utterly disappointed or devoid of any drive . this brings us to a standstill.   How to get out of that quagmire ?  when we feel so broken down that we feel we lack any will .
The poetess , like a young ,energetic leader , and a prophet , has given a very beautiful solution , which is also the only solution .

To accomplish the Will
Give up standing still

This does need a thrill,  a dose to kill the germs that deaden us while living biologically alive but dynamically dead . The poetess , like a healing messiah has prescribed the healing medication as :

Progress and feel accountable
To fill a vibrant profile

This enlivening of sense of consciousness to self  accountability is the vital force that can revive and resuscitate our deadening spirits .

The process has taught us to remain hopeful ,gleeful and cheerful,  as divine force is there to strengthen and support us if we discard the sensation of feeling gloomy .  smile is the first prerequisite to face all odds . Life isn't too long and we shouldn't sacrifice it at the alter of remaining sad . the poetess , in this vein , advises us to :
Smile and be loveable
As we live for a while

The poetess concludes this poem with more beautiful lines that furnish us with the greatest fountain head of energy, strength and support , i.e. the divine help that overpowers all the decelerating forces . She says :

Let the Goodwill and God's Will ,
Define the lifestyle!

True , we should refer the outcome to the will of God , and with fullest trust and faith in His mighty being , we must remain equipped with unfailing hope , and keep on unflinching struggle to fight the battle of life and meet its challenges

All accolade to the learned poetess for having composed a very thought provoking and spirit evoking ink.

'Gene' in Imagine- A Review by Mir Samsul Haque

Presenting a review of a winning poem-

"Gene in Imagine

The trends changed from Galigaskins to jeans,
But the best eternal gene under skin-
Has always been the 'imagine'!

Fancy thoughts have brought revolution,
Some in the form of cat- ion -
Like the Wheel, Meal and Deal !
While some in the form of an-ion - Like steal!

The imagination never allowed the thoughts of pollution,
But always allowed views of luxurious nation!

Ergo, The gene in imagination,
Must be a wisely charged ion,
So the future generations,
Feel proud of our creations and gain inspiration
To build a great nation with sustainable imagination! "
-Forum Shah

REVIEW

Imagination is the life-blood of poetic predilection. And the floret of fancy flourishes and nourishes within the ambit of poetic propensity. The development in real sense is to realize the actual world around and deck it with eternal vibes. This has been resonating in the humble poem " Gene in Imagine." of the most influential poetess, Forum Shah. The poem's title itself is catchy and captivating - an admixture of biological science and literary litmus.

This is truly an outstanding craft full of imaginative beauty revealed in a very scientific tone in realistic set up. The inherent message of the poem is mellifluously clear. While admitting the pivotal role of gene in human beings, she sets her tone in obedience to imagination that has revolutionized the world idyllically time to time.

In the scientific backdrop, the poet deals with detailed account of the subatomic particles, i. e. cation and anion. These two epochal discoveries by J. J. Thomson and Earnest Rutherford have revolutionized the world and changed whole current of scientific thoughts prevalent then. This scientific imagination has no doubt brought substantial changes in terms of comforts and luxuries which is evident in her lines ..

"Like the Wheel, Meal and Deal !
While some in the form of an-ion - Like steal!"

However the poet is not completely swept away by the forces of science, she never forgets to give credence to the major ingredient of imagination which has been instrumental in building the nations. In sheer lamentation she condemns the vanity and viciousness of luxurious nations that too with a touch of genuine poetic fire. In language terse, exact precision coupled with lucidity and clarity, she sings....

Ergo, The gene in imagination,
Must be a wisely charged ion,
So the future generations,
Feel proud of our creations and gain inspiration
To build a great nation with sustainable imagination! "

She highlights the perfection in imagination that is essential to civilizational progress. We, the humans should well in advance be well aware of our future generations as we " Feel proud of our creation and gain inspiration ". This line reiterates that the survival of posterity solely rests upon us. The narrator's nimble mind comes with a solution as she espouses the beauty of pure imagination.
She has alluded to do away with frenzy of activity lest the generation succumbs to a hugely embarrassing prognosis. In an optimistic tone she envisions a life tinged with exuding confidence, only by purity of thoughts and being sagacious to the core. So we can foresee real floret of fancy in the realm of life till time's eternity.

Her deep interest in human life and destinies has made her poem timeless because she is sincere enough, patient enough and truthful enough in the entire poem. She's correlated science and literature by her magical pen, yet evocative to the core.
I'm immensely glad to review this well timed poem that can lead humanity towards prosperity traversing along the trajectory of trailblazing imagination.
Such a poem of high cadence and essence needs high appreciation and commendation.
Wish the great artist all the very best.
